Easy grip grinder?

Does anyone know of a grinder suitable for someone who has grip and fine motor control problems (from multiple sclerosis). My mate finds his hard to use and he drops and fumbles it a lot.

Have hand issues myself
Currently using a brilliant cut stainless steel
Small so I can use my palms more than my fingers but it is heavy
A good design and on my wish list for a stainless steel version

The one on the right is a brilliant cut stainless steel
Use it daily, comes with fine, medium and coarse plates
You can buy one plate or all three
The different grinds have effects on my ball vape
The flavor and vapor density can change with each plate

Expensive but well built and will last a long time
Good grinds and requires little maintenance

Thanks. Looks quite standard and no easier to grip than normal though

And btw @Ringodoggie

Your salad shooter idea would be my first solution but I just don't smoke enough to warrant it and as you said "Not for microdosers." :rasta:

The Mamba is 1 gram. They have a 2 gram version but it is more than double the $s and once again, I just don't need it. I have an SLX grinder - which is fabulous - but some days my arthritis just kills my hands and an electric option is the ticket. Coffee grinders and most spice grinders seem to pulverize weed unless you get the right one and you are good at pulsing.

There is always the option of grip tape, for an existing grinder, that's just getting a bit difficult, but you want to keep it. There is full on grit tape for skateboards and the leading edge of steps. Or grip tape, which might be more like a soft textured latex. As found on bats and racket handles. There is probably advice online about sticking it to alloy bats, that would apply to a shiny grinder. Without resorting to knurling it.

Better grip or a larger circumference would not work because the pain - at least for me - is in the thumb/hand joint which makes gripping anything at all very painful at times.

I will report on the mamba when I get it later this month.

I too suffer much the same with my hands.

Looking forward to reading your experience w/ the mamba.
